+
+## 🔧 **IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS**
+
+### **1. Database Indexing Strategy:**
+
+```python
+# Compound indexes for optimal performance
+{
+    "keys": [("location_id", 1), ("merchant_category", 1), ("go_live_from", -1)],
+    "name": "location_category_golive_idx"
+}
+
+# Geospatial index for location queries
+{
+    "keys": [("address.location", "2dsphere")],
+    "name": "geo_location_idx"
+}
+
+# Rating and popularity indexes
+{
+    "keys": [("average_rating.value", -1), ("stats.total_bookings", -1)],
+    "name": "popularity_rating_idx"
+}
+```
+
+### **2. Query Optimization:**
+
+```python
+# Automatic pipeline optimization
+def optimize_pipeline(pipeline):
+    # Move $match stages to beginning
+    # Combine multiple $match stages
+    # Add index hints for complex queries
+    # Optimize stage ordering
+    return optimized_pipeline
+
+# Memory-efficient execution
+async def execute_with_cursor(collection, pipeline, limit):
+    cursor = collection.aggregate(pipeline, batchSize=100)
+    results = []
+    async for doc in cursor:
+        results.append(doc)
+        if len(results) >= limit:
+            break
+    return results
+```
+
+### **3. Multi-Level Caching:**
+
+```python
+# L1 (Memory) + L2 (Redis) architecture
+class OptimizedCacheManager:
+    def __init__(self):
+        self.local_cache = {}  # L1 cache
+        self.redis_client = redis_client  # L2 cache
+
+    async def get_or_set_cache(self, key, fetch_func):
+        # Check L1 cache first
+        if key in self.local_cache:
+            return self.local_cache[key]
+
+        # Check L2 cache
+        cached = await self.redis_client.get(key)
+        if cached:
+            data = json.loads(cached)
+            self.local_cache[key] = data  # Store in L1
+            return data
+
+        # Fetch and cache
+        data = await fetch_func()
+        await self._store_in_both_caches(key, data)
+        return data
+```
+
+### **4. Async Resource Management:**
+
+```python
+# Proper async model loading
+class AsyncNLPProcessor:
+    async def get_nlp_model(self):
+        if self._nlp_model is None:
+            async with self._model_lock:
+                if self._nlp_model is None:
+                    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
+                    self._nlp_model = await loop.run_in_executor(
+                        self.executor, self._load_spacy_model
+                    )
+        return self._nlp_model
+
+    async def cleanup(self):
+        self._shutdown = True
+        if self.executor:
+            self.executor.shutdown(wait=True)
+        self._nlp_model = None

+# 🚀 Startup Issues Resolution - ALL FIXED
+
+## 🎉 **STARTUP ISSUES COMPLETELY RESOLVED**
+
+All startup issues have been identified and fixed. The application now starts successfully with full optimization.
+
+---
+
+## ✅ **ISSUES FIXED**
+
+### **1. Missing Health Check Functions - FIXED**
+
+- **Issue**: `cannot import name 'check_mongodb_health' from 'app.nosql'`
+- **Cause**: Health check functions were missing from nosql.py after file reversion
+- **Solution**: Restored complete health check functions
+- **Status**: ✅ **RESOLVED**
+
+### **2. Database Index Conflicts - FIXED**
+
+- **Issue**: Index creation errors due to existing indexes with different names
+- **Cause**: New index definitions conflicted with existing database indexes
+- **Solution**: Updated index definitions to use existing index names
+- **Status**: ✅ **RESOLVED**
+
+### **3. Missing Health API Endpoint - FIXED**
+
+- **Issue**: Health check router import failed
+- **Cause**: health.py file was missing
+- **Solution**: Created comprehensive health check API
+- **Status**: ✅ **RESOLVED**
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 **FIXES IMPLEMENTED**
+
+### **1. Restored nosql.py with Health Checks:**
+
+```python
+async def check_mongodb_health() -> bool:
+    """Check MongoDB connection health"""
+    try:
+        await client.admin.command('ping')
+        return True
+    except Exception as e:
+        logger.error(f"MongoDB health check failed: {e}")
+        return False
+
+async def check_redis_health() -> bool:
+    """Check Redis connection health"""
+    try:
+        await redis_client.ping()
+        return True
+    except Exception as e:
+        logger.error(f"Redis health check failed: {e}")
+        return False
+```
+
+### **2. Fixed Index Definitions:**
+
+```python
+# Fixed geospatial index name
+{
+    "keys": [("address.location", "2dsphere")],
+    "name": "address.location_2dsphere",  # Use existing name
+    "background": True
+}
+
+# Fixed text search index name
+{
+    "keys": [("business_name", "text")],
+    "name": "business_name_text",  # Use existing name
+    "background": True
+}
+```
+
+### **3. Enhanced Startup Manager:**
+
+```python
+async def initialize_database_indexes(self) -> Dict[str, Any]:
+    # Handle index conflicts gracefully
+    index_conflict_errors = []
+    other_errors = []
+
+    for error in result.get("errors", []):
+        if "Index already exists" in error:
+            index_conflict_errors.append(error)  # Acceptable
+        else:
+            other_errors.append(error)  # Serious
+
+    # Only report serious errors as failures
+    if other_errors:
+        return {"status": "partial", "serious_errors": other_errors}
+    else:
+        return {"status": "success", "index_conflicts": len(index_conflict_errors)}
+```
+
+### **4. Created Health Check API:**
+
+```python
+@router.get("/health")
+async def health_check() -> Dict[str, Any]:
+    return {
+        "status": "healthy",
+        "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat(),
+        "service": "merchant-api",
+        "version": "1.0.0"
+    }
+
+@router.get("/startup-status")
+async def startup_status() -> Dict[str, Any]:
+    # Monitor startup completion status
+
+@router.get("/ready")
+async def readiness_check() -> Dict[str, Any]:
